Chocolate 'aids fatigue syndrome'

A daily dose of specially-formulated dark chocolate may help cut chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms.
Patients in a pilot study found they had less fatigue when eating dark chocolate with a high cocoa content than with white chocolate dyed brown.

Researchers from Hull York Medical School said the results were surprising but dark chocolate may be having an effect on the brain chemical serotonin.

Scientific research is highly unreliable. Especially when it comes to measuring "fatigue", considering the psychological impact already by just having chocoloate may make someone better perform naturally.

Never trust researches!:P

History of chocolate

The tasty secret of the cacao (kah KOW) tree was discovered 2,000 years ago in the tropical rainforests of the Americas. The pods of this tree contain seeds that can be processed into chocolate. The story of how chocolate grew from a local Mesoamerican beverage into a global sweet encompasses many cultures and continents.

The first people known to have made chocolate were the ancient cultures of Mexico and Central America. These people, including the Maya and Aztec, mixed ground cacao seeds with various seasonings to make a spicy, frothy drink.

Later, the Spanish conquistadors brought the seeds back home to Spain, where new recipes were created. Eventually, and the drink’s popularity spread throughout Europe. Since then, new technologies and innovations have changed the texture and taste of chocolate, but it still remains one of the world’s favorite flavors.

Dark chocolate's my favorite!And how it's good for you health too!

ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!!










...even though I highly doubt that this scientific research is true...but shhh, no one needs to know that :)
 
In some Mexican sauces called Mole, the base ingrediant is cocoa. They are quite spicy BBQ sauces and have no resemblance to the taste of chocolate.

Chocolate is know to have ingrediants that are percursors to some neuro transmitters and as such can be safe mood enhancers or pain relievers. The study is very reasonable. But, I don't think you will see the day a Dr. will be writting prescriptions for chocolate bars. It will more likely result in a pill or with my luck an injection.
 
mmmmmmmmmm....it's gotta be dark chocolate.
